Do you still believe in religious traditions?

When i was in Philippines we do still practice those kind of traditions coz my granny is very committed to the church. I always going to the province during the lenten season to celebrate it.We celebrate it solemnly no party's. And then on Black saturday when Jesus raisen, we do just stay at home and relax and have a happy meals with family. Happy posting.

fr me, it really depends on the person itself. Because good things should start from yourself first.

I belong to the vanishing Old Catholic family in the Philippines ( I say vanishing because the present generation seems forget what religion is really all about)that strictly observed Catholic customs and practices. I still practiced what I had learned from my childhood years with regards to Catholicism, even though I am living now in the city where most people don't practice the sacredness of their religion anymore I still managed to respect and obey my Catholic practices. I do fasting on good friday and refrain from eating unclean foods at lenten season, I never eat meat on fridays up to resurrection. I was taught not to go out during holy thursday and good friday and just spent the whole day in my room reading The Holy bible. I also agree with what the Holy Pontiff Pope Benedict XVI had been advocating to refrain from texting on holy weeks as an act of great sacrifices and repentance. I don't attend "simbang gabi" just because I have something to ask but I attended "simbang gabi"because it is my duty as a true Catholic honoring the birth of the Savior Jesus Christ. "Simbang Gabi"is a 9 day novena in preparation of the birth of Jesus.

For me I don't believe in any religion or god at all. They only using it for them just to get money. I do not believe that god created man, but it was the man who created such thing as gods.
